When you select a Unicode character in the Symbol dialog box, its character code appears in the Character code box. If you already know the character code, you can type it directly into the Character code box to find the Unicode character.

The name displayed before the Character code box is the official character name in the Unicode 3.0 standard.

1. Click where you want to insert the Unicode character.
2. On the Insert menu, click Symbol, and then click the Symbols tab.
3. In the Font box, click the font that you want.
4. In the From box, click Unicode.

   The set of characters is limited if you select something other than Unicode in the From box. For example, if you select a local code page rather than Unicode, you will see a correspondingly reduced set of characters in the Symbol dialog box.

5. If the Subset box is available, click a subcategory.
6. Double-click the symbol that you want to insert.
